tomsharp<p>In 1830, Charles Lyell established uniformitarianism in geology, which replaced catastrophism and assumes that effects observable today operating over long periods of time are enough to explain the geologic record. <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/Poetry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Poetry</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/Science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Science</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/History" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>History</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/Geology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Geology</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/Lyell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Lyell</span></a> (<a href="https://sharpgiving.com/thebookofscience/items/p1830.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">sharpgiving.com/thebookofscien</span><span class="invisible">ce/items/p1830.html</span></a>)</p>

Having previously been a sceptic on the theory of the ‘Antiquity of Man’, Lyell gave his support to Prestwich and Evans: “...I am fully prepared to corroborate the conclusions which have been recently laid before the Royal Society by Mr. Prestwich, in regard to the age of the flint implements associated in undisturbed gravel, in the north of France, with the bones of elephants, at <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Abbeville" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Abbeville</span></a> and Amiens.”</p><p><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/geology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>geology</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/HistoryOfScience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HistoryOfScience</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/GeologicalArchaeology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GeologicalArchaeology</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Palaeolithic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Palaeolithic</span></a></p>
